This Newbery author's triumphant novel follows five generations of one African-American family from Africa to a South Carolina plantation through the Civil War, to the end of segregation, and beyond, to a moving and redemptive finale, when a young drug-addicted cousin is brought home to the glory field for a day of reunion and renewal. It is a story of pride, determination, struggle, and love. And of the piece of the land that holds them together throughout it all.
